Second stop on my "Can't Get At Home Coffee" and I was very pleased. Absolutely delicious flavors and good coffee that hits the spot. read more

Dunn Brothers Coffee - Caramelized Almond Nitro Nirvana - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rapid City, South Dakota

Update - six years later! I love this coffee. It's all roasted in house, taste smooth, and is much less sugary than the Starbucks counter part. If you have a choice between here and anywhere else you should go here. The service is great, drinks are delicious, and is a reasonable cost. Further, the staff are honest. That's a big thing to me personally and having a crew you can trust behind the counter is important. So much so they found my wives purse and returned it complete! Thanks Dunn Bros crew. You guys are solid read more

Another local coffee shop that gets confused when I order straight espresso. A lot of the time they are confused by the order and ask me to explain it to them. Often a different price is charged each time. The management of this place needs to explain straight espresso to the baristas, and figure out what to charge for what was the first and most basic espresso drink. read more

It was more crowded than we thought it'd be on a Monday around 9:30am but there was still plenty of seating. We each ordered one of the sausage and egg biscuits and I had the nitro cold brew to accompany mine. Both were heavenly and I could not have been happier with the biscuit. The service was friendly and quick, and we were able to order, enjoy our food, and leave within 20 min. Exactly what we were looking for that day! read more

​The reason why I gave it four stars is because the main part of the shop is small, it's usually already taken when I've been there, and that's the prettiest and nicest part. They have a back room, but that side is not inspiring at all and it's kind of blah. The employees are absolutely amazing!! They do know what Customer Service is all about!! Interestingly enough I have been there for other reasons, and I haven't tried their product just yet. But with that kind of Staff, when I'll stop by the area again, I'll definitely try their product, because they are absolutely Awesome!!! read more

Well we will not be returning to this place. The girl taking orders could not be less interested in being friendly or actually listening to your order. I had to repeat my order multiple times and it was still wrong. Not only was it wrong but when we received our order and it was incorrect there was no apology or anything. We were missing a sandwich and one of the coffees was wrong. When we got home one of the other sandwiches was wrong too. Our order wasn't complicated. The coffee is not even coffee. We got a cold brew with some cream and I would say it was half coffee and half cream. I didn't want a milkshake. I wanted a cold brew. This place is also expensive. Three sandwiches and three coffees for a little over $40 with tip. Not impressed. read more

Omg can your cashier be any slower! Two people ahead of me but it still took ten minutes to order and now waiting for a sandwich The guy bringing out food from the kitchen needs to speak up when calling out names People cannot hear him and food is sitting on the counter And now that I'm to the side and can see the kitchen I have to wonder why the cook has no hat or hair net His big beard and bushy hair should be covered Not a good experience read more

Great coffee and great service. However, I have witnessed an employee - the guy with the long, purple hair - not wearing a mask (despite CDC guidelines and the worldwide pandemic). I also witnessed him walk in from outside and start making a beverage, without even washing his hands! I think this is unacceptable. It would be even if we were not in, you know, a dangerous pandemic, that can be prevented with... hand washing. Everyone else was polite and kind but I worry about this employee. read more

Go local! Coffee is smooth and hot. My latte was lovely. Best part about this place was the location- right next to a quilt shop and brewery. It's all goodness. read more

Dunn Brothers Coffee - Sign - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rapid City, South Dakota

Traveling and found this place on yelp. I was looking for a local coffee shop that also prepared some good food for a late brunch. That's exactly what I got! I ordered their famous Nirvana drink on ice and I'm not one for cold brews but I loved it. They have a lot of choices for food. I ordered a breakfast bagel which was really good, maybe a little dry for my taste but still good. My boyfriend got a berry smoothie and their Naan pizza. He loved it. If I'm traveling in Rapid City again I would not mind coming back here. read more

Dunn Brothers Coffee - Their famous Nirvana and breakfast bagel. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rapid City, South Dakota

I've never been to a coffee shop where such apparently well-sourced beans made such crap coffee. And my, that service couldn't be less friendly. Nor that tab more obnoxious ($9 for 12 oz matcha latte and small coffee). Lastly, a note to the service staff: Do try to hide your disdain for people in masks. I understand it's easier for us to hide ours because we're wearing them, but still. read more

I have been going to Dunn brothers for years... And I must say that when I went inside to the new location and ordered sandwiches they came out fairly quickly and were DELICIOUS. But I went through the drive-through the other day and I will never do that again. Service was atrocious and it took 14 minutes to get a piece of toast with Nutella and bananas on it... I can make it at home in 3.. The worst part was being completely ignored for 14 minutes... And then nothing... Just my toast with Nutella and bananas on it. If you want service....go inside. read more

Dunn Brothers Coffee - 14 minutes for a small piece of toast with Nutella and banana slices. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rapid City, South Dakota

I came in on a Saturday and it was extremely busy. I had a breve latte and it was very well balanced. Really courteous staff, and that I cannot say enough. It was absolutely slammed, and there were only 3 people working, the 3 young folks behind the counter were working their tails off and were very nice and professional. There was a food delivery guy there for pick up who was quite rude and they were all kind and polite despite his poor behavior. read more

I had a mocha it wasn't that good. It was over sweet but not chocolate flavored. Service was super slow. Wouldn't come Back. read more

This is the place for great coffee. I usually order the same cold brew on ice, with a splash of half and half. Or try a Nirvana. My drink is always consistent here. The food also amazing. The Ruben or nan pizza is my go-to. Great drinks, good, and staff. read more

I can't give Dunne Brothers Rapid City any stars, but I was required by Yelp to give a rating, therefore, I give the least I am able. My family and I have really enjoyed going there but today when we went through the drive-through, the employee at the window and the two others I saw attending the counter inside were all wearing their masks hanging from their ears. No only was it disappointing, but I felt the fact they had them hanging from their ears was doubly offensive. When I asked, the employee at the window said mask-wearing is now voluntary at Dunne Brothers. This is a pandemic. I won't ever return. There are many other alternatives. read more

My husband was craving a breakfast sandwich so we decided to stop here and try one. He got a croissant with bacon sausage and cheese and it was huge! And definitely delicious. I had the iced nirvana with white chocolate sauce which was smooth and delicious. I hate the acid taste of coffee but this drink was smooth and sweet. Employees were super nice too! read more

I am not a great coffee judge. I mostly drink the same kind of Starbucks and I am okay with that. Always iced. This place has cold pressed coffee and that is some legitimate stuff. I forgot about it until I started writing this review and now I want it again, but I live like 1,500 miles away so that probably won't happen. Also, one trip to South Dakota per year is already exceeding my annual capacity. Nice bathroom with a picture of a cat doing something weird. In case you were wondering. read more

Woah! Really nasty manager. My friend wanted coffee; I didn't. We went to Dunn Brothers so he could get some. Manager wouldn't let me sit in the store without us EACH buying something! Fuck that. We'll never be back. Manager also gave my friend shit about getting milk with his coffee -- I overheard something like "well, if you're gonna use my internet, then ... " WOAH. read more

I missed my morning stop for coffee and Dunn Bros was suggested by many for great coffee and a special cinnamon coffee cake. They might have good coffee but their espresso sucked. My latte was not good at all. Also they didn't have any of the coffee cake. The staff told me it comes in a few times a week and they didn't get a shipment today. Hmmm...shipment? I probably didn't want it anyway. Browsing the other breakfast offerings I opted not to order anything. All the sandwiches were pre-made that they reheated. They were like the breakfast sandwiches you see at the gas station - no thank you. The good thing was the shop was well laid out with plenty of places to sit. They had free wi-fi and lots of outlets if you needed to plug in, and the staff was quite friendly. But with no good coffee or breakfast I won't be back. peace, love, and good booze ~ chase read more

Undrinkable Americano this morning. McDonald's brewed coffee tasted better. Barista mentioned he didn't drink coffee. Why work in a coffee shop if you don't drink what you're selling? How can I trust you to know if it tastes how it should? Typical Rapid, service is poor and the product is worse. read more

When I am traveling it is always a relief when I come across a Dunn Bros. No coffee compares to fresh roasted coffee. Great snacks and pastries too. read more

Dunn Brothers Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rapid City, South Dakota

I never was greeted in the window . It took over 25 minutes for my order . I even ordered ahead to . I was the only one in drive thru . I had a Redbull, iced matcha , a bagel sandwich and an English muffin . I was there when my order was supposed to be ready . The guy in the window couldn't have cared less about being there but they loved talking to each other while I was waiting . read more

I really want to like Dunn Bros because they roast their beans in house and they have a parking lot so I don't have to move my car every 2 hours, BUT.. The coffee is just ok, drinkable but there is definitely better coffee in town. I haven't tried the espresso like the other reviewer, but already knowing how the coffee is I probably wouldn't. Also it both baffles me AND drives me insane that they have an entire staff of baristas and it seems as though not a single one of them knows how to use an espresso machine steam wand properly, so if you're planning on sticking around be prepared to hear the repeated high volume/pitch screeching of incorrectly steamed milk as well as the staff YELLING over the noise. I also wouldn't order a latte based on the educated guess that nobody really knows what's going on with that espresso machine. The food is really not even worth discussing. In fact it seems like food was just an afterthought from corporate to bring up the sales. It is all prepackaged microwaved nastiness. I haven't tried the baked goods because I don't really see a point. None of it is made in house. I've actually bought a breakfast sandwich from the drive through and had to throw it away and go somewhere else because it was so gross. AND I was hungover which means it must have been REALLY gross to warrant that kind of effort. That said, it's a big place with lots of room to do homework and the baristas are always nice. read more

We we're super excited to try this place but left disappointed. We ordered 2 chai teas, which on a cold rainy day seemed perfect, along with the apple honey toast. The chai was so watery and lacked any real flavor. And what flavor there was tasted like it came out of an envelope. The apple honey toast looked delicious and overall was delicious except was missing an important part of the item..toast. The bread was cold and didn't seem toasted at all. However, the cream cheese, apples, and honey made the overall dish acceptable(and the reason for 2 stars instead of 1). We won't be back again as there are too many other coffee options in Rapid City to waste time and money here. read more

First off, covid regulations are fully met pertaining to present day guidelines. The vanilla nirvana is wonderful and the food is excellent. The service is exceptional with being greeted from the very welcoming barista who was blonde and so pleasant. We are visiting from chicago and love quick coffee stops-glad we chose this one!!! read more

Perfection. If we lived here we'd be regulars as a family. Staff is congenial and welcoming. Food is just perfection. My second visit I ordered the wrong thing, to excited trying to get the first item I'd had. Let's just say I was happily blown away with my mistake sandwich lol. read more

Wish they would not have moved. One person taking and filling orders, Long line. Noisy and limited seating choices.

I agree that they could do more with the pastries (sometimes they heat them sometimes they don't, sometimes they overheat them), but the reason I'm giving a 5 star review is because Dunn Bros has consistently been a reliable work space for me for many years. Since 2003 maybe? And their coffee has depth without being overly pretentious. I've also had their tea and hot chocolate and those are pretty delicious. The hot chocolate isn't too too sweet, which I appreciate. The drive through is actually a fun experience sometimes and has enough space for multiple cars. They also have some of the same staff this year that they had last year. All food service and coffee service places will have turnover, but this place has less turnover than most shops I've been to. There are a couple of fun guys who work there currently (guy with the beard), Jesse Daniel, and there was another blonde guy who used to work there who was very intelligent and impressive. It's not like all employees are going to put in extra effort to make your day or will be overbright (fake nice), but more often than not, especially on the off hours, their quirkiness and kindness shines through. They are engaged coffee people for the most part and I love going there for the coffee and workspace, but it's also nice to see familiar faces! Update: Just heard that intelligent barista still works there! read more

Usually good place to go till today, I asked for a couple pistachio muffins the lady told me that what was in the case what she could sell and when I went around to get my coffee as in there is other pistachio muffins on the rack in the back and asked her if those were already paid for and she didn't say anything just proceeded to take the bag that had the muffins I head back there and switch them out for that. Then as I'm sitting there about to leave the drinks weren't even marked so I guess were taste testing. Usually our overall good experience maybe they're just having an off day. read more

My $5.50 16 oz vanilla latte was burnt by too much vanilla syrup, putting in 3 pumps is

The BEST coffee shop in Rapid by far. Excellent customer service by Noah who recommended the creamy coconut nirvana - I can't find a drink that good anywhere back home in LA. The food, coffee, ambiance...everything is top notch. 10/10 would recommend!!! Thank you Dunn Bro's! read more

I'm from Los Angeles, CA and stayed in Rapid City for a week and this was my favorite spot by far! Super cool vibe in there and absolutely amazing coffee AND food! Highly recommend!! read more

I like this chain for one thing: their cappuchino-sized espressos. I was pleased to find one in Rapid City on a recent trip to look at big rock sculptures. We weren't in there long enough to experience the poor service they seem to be famous for. read more

Passing through and was looking for some coffee. I saw some with higher ratings but opted for this place. I'm glad I did. My daughter found a drink she liked as well. The coffee cake was delicious and moist. The staff was super friendly. Quick service as well. read more

I go to Dunns most every morning. Great service! Good coffee. Way better then Charbucks! I usually stick to a medium or light roast. I love a little cinnamon sprinkled in. Smells and tastes great. Cold press iced on a hot day is awesome. Bonus is they have Colonial house Carmel rolls. Hands down the best ones on the planet. read more

I loved coming here when I lived in SD, I would always get a London Fog with Lavender in it. Their pastries and savories were gigantic and tasty, and the decor was pleasant and staff was always kind. I think the only downfall to this place is when there is no seating during the weekends, but to say the least, everything else about this place is awesome! read more

What a great find! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting. The coffee is spot on and I also had a peach Danish, which was excellent! I would come again. read more

Always on the lookout for a good cup of coffee during travels. This was a great discovery. Great service, and a very satisfying cup of java.
